It’s not a sequel.

Or, more to the point, as director Mel Gibson puts it, “It’s not The Passion 2“.

While promoting his upcoming World War II movie Hacksaw Ridge, Gibson spoke with pastor Greg Laurie at the SoCal Harvest conference, held at Laurie’s Harvest Christian Fellowship in Riverside, California.

During the nearly 10-minute conversation (video below), Gibson talks about why he made The Passion of the Christ, the likelihood of The Resurrection being his next film, thoughts about Hacksaw Ridge, and why faith is a recurring theme that he’s compelled to explore.

Hacksaw Ridge opens nationwide on November 4, 2016.
